Headlining Saturday's UFC 259 event from the UFC APEX in Las Vegas is major three championship fights, including a battle in the main event between two titleholders. The marquee fight of the night sees middleweight champion Israel Adesanya travel up to the light heavyweight division to challenge 205-pound champion Jan Blachowicz for the belt.
The main event will see middleweight champ Israel Adesanya make the journey 20 pounds north to light heavyweight to challenge light heavyweight king Jan Blachowicz for the 205-pound title. If successful, Adesanya will become the fifth simultaneous two-division champion in promotional history. It would also be the fastest any fighter has accomplished that feat as he makes just his 10th walk to the Octagon on Saturday.
This card also marks the return of bantamweight champion Petr Yan when he takes on Aljamain Sterling in a much-anticipated clash for the 135-pound title. Plus, lightweight Islam Makhachev makes his first appearance inside the Octagon in 18 months when he takes on the surging Drew Dober. And former light heavyweight title challenger Thiago Santos opens the PPV portion of the card when he faces red-hot Aleksandar Rakic in a critical 205-pound clash.
